There was a spark somewhere a billion or more years ago and the flame of life had risen and raged, waned and sputtered, only to grow once more, spreading across the world. Death had never triumphed over life. I was part of a great conflagration that had kept itself ablaze for ages."-Walter Mosley, Touched
